Home Town - Diablo
Viking NorthEast
since 2002
Home Town was created in 2002 to provide a solid action server welcoming to players who wanted to get into the action without a lot of npcs and looking behind trees.
Over the years we have refined and polished the reward systems to best emulate the original Diablo gear schemes. items are modified and named on delivery with random powered affixes. To accommodate the variety of classes we have included several Diablo 2 LOD item sets, uniques and runewords complete with socketing systems. On equip bonus' for full sets, runewords and some unique items as well as some crafted weapons(Iratha's Razor) have on-hit heal effects based on the Heal skill. Hyped up attack speed for players and bosses make this server uniquely exciting with a high action level that even the devs may not have imagined.
The original Diablo campaign with it's 16 levels of dungeons will punish you from all sources as you reach level 16 - 24(varies on build and time spent reaching who we lovingly refer to as little D). After vanquishing Little D you will then make your way east to the Monastery where you will begin to take on the Diablo 2 LOD campaign through Rocky Wastes(no, not south philly), Kurast, Pandemonium Fortress in Hell and then Harrogoth... No, the deal is not done because there is of course three lesser evils to contend with before you must face all three prime evils in "Burning Tristram". Even then it is not over because you will still have Lilith to contend with.

The EE server is referred to as the "Nightmare" server as it has a harder difficulty as well as death penalty for post Tristram areas and a harsher penalty for areas following the "acts".
The 1.69 server is has more "casual" elements but will kill your characters just the same.
